  1. I've heard some people saying you get a faster connection when downloading the US client and then changing it to point to the EU servers.

    Also, its alot quicker to install CoH, then CoV, THEN update.

    Do you have CoV installed already or just CoH?

    doubtful this is anything to do with an upgrade of graphics (sadly) much more likely is that this is just the artists interprtation of paragon which he/she created to fit in with the very detailed renders of the heroes.

    This sounds about right; just an artists impression of a virtual city.
  3. Ohohoh, I'd love one if you have time please

    Graphics Upgrade

    At the moment, I think the game looks great on full settings. I would also welcome a graphical update with such excitement!

    i think they need to do small changes, like add some of the stuff FFM described.

    One of the videos showed seamless transitioning from within a hospital to the outside. As in, no black screen.. The door opened and you could SEE the outside, and you just ran out to it. A small touch, but an important one.

    Small things like this would add to the game alot IMO.
  5. Heh, that does sound pretty stupid... And I think the suggestion to change it to a number of uses power is very reasonable.

    How to Auto-Jump

    [ QUOTE ]
    Thanks Kin I can never remember how to do this. However... to turn auto-jump off???

    [/ QUOTE ]

    How to Auto-Jump

    Not really a guide, but more of a handy trick.

    Type /++up to jump automatically, just like pressing R for autorun

    Found this handy for superjumping from one end of IP to the other whilst doing stuff on the internet/MSN. It's also handy if you're following someone whilst you grab something to eat so you don't get stuck behind anything

    You could also make a macro/bind for it:

    /bind <key>, "++up"

    or

    /macro <name>, "++up"

    Hope this helps someone somewhere!

    New website! :D

    I like it- Shame they didn't use a decent picture HERE for the mastermind picture that shows a robot floating with just a "toe" holding him to the edge

    It wasn't a good thing. It's called being notorious.

    hi-jacking the thread :P but my current graphics card is on it's way out, would anyone know a good dual screen capable graphics card that would work with a "ASUSTeK Computer INC. P5W DH Deluxe Rev 1.xx" motherboard?....coz i'm bamboozled

    [/ QUOTE ]

    For duel screen, you'd want a powerful one. What size are the screens? I'd recommend a couple of THESE badboys in SLI, but that may require a new motherboard. (I can't be bothered to search for the one you have )

    THIS graphics card also rocks if you only have 1 PCI slot- You'll need a good PSU though!

    Anyone know if this also applies to different instances of the same zone?

    As if this would be a problem on Defiant

    A new version with the Issue 13 powersets and IOs should be ready in a couple of days. Working on it!

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Oh you are a good lad!

    ok heres my luck, i get the new card, only to find out this crazy adapter i need to connect to the power supply, isnt actually supplied.

    So im kinda stuck now with no new shiny to play with

    [/ QUOTE ]

    I had this problem. Built you girlfriend a new computer a few months ago only to find it didn't come with an adaptor for the power. They will come with the higher end of PSUs as standard, but I was using the PSU that came with the case.

    Sortde it by popping down the local computer shop and getting one for 99p

    Failing that, try ebay searching for something like 'molex to 6-pin graphics adaptor'.
  14. This sucks. I'd rather be bombered with filler requests tbh.
  15. Give it time, its bound to be a lil' temperamental on the first day.

    I'm patient (I waited many months for a version compliant with 11.5 after all and never asked for it on the forums). I mainly pointed out that the version on the linked page was an old one..

    Edit: In the meantime, I've drawn up a little chart in Excel so I'll know what powers to pick and where to put the slots, from new character and up to level 22 when I'll add level 25 standard IOs in those slots (helps me plan, and craft the needed IOs on my other, more established, characters ahead of time).

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Although its good to have a plan, its it fun to hit x level and having such a hard choice between a couple of awesome powers?!

    Heh, just noticed in one of the new arcs there's a mission named "Save the Tabula"...

    kinda inappropriate innit?

    Haha- Wonder if that has anything to do with TR...
  18. Strange problem.

    I doubt it, I think thats a bit too obscure. Saying that, anything's possible!

    Both Earth and Kinetic can be somewhat laggy powersets

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Yeah, I agree with this. Especially when casting stone cages and fulcrum shift on a large mob. Maybe tone down your graphics a bit and see if there's an improvement?
  20. If you're already on full settings and everything is turned on, then no, framerate will be the only improvement.

    I went with this configuration in the end:

    PROCESSOR Intel® Core™ 2 Quad-Core Processor Q9450 (2.66Ghz, 1333MHz FSB, 12MB cache)
    MONITOR 24in S2409W WIDESCREEN UK Black (1920 x 1080)
    HARD DRIVE 1.2 TB (2x 640 GB) Serial ATA (7200 Rpm) Dual HDD Config Raid 0 Stripe
    MEMORY 4096MB 800MHz Dual Channel DDR2 SDRAM [4x1024]
    GRAPHICS CARD 1GB nVidia GeForce GTX 280 graphics card
    OPTICAL DRIVE Blu-Ray RW Disc Drive (read/write CD/DVD/Blu-Ray Disc)
    SOUND SOFTWARE SoundBlaster™ XFI™ Xtreme Gamer Card

    I'm hopeful I'll soon be able to wander around the COV zones with better than the 10 - 20 fps I'm currently getting

    Oh, and happy birthday Kinenetical

    Also /unsigned

    The rationale - which I agree with - is that if Fitness (for which, read "Stamina") was an inherent, End management would be such a minor issue that you might as well drop the entire stat from the game.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    I disagree, stamina helps with endurance, it doesn't allow you to never look at your blue bar again.

    I think something should be done about endurance at low levels though.
